LinkedIn Learning Pathways
LinkedIn Learning Pathways
The University of Huddersfield and LinkedIn Learning have partnered to provide you with the opportunity to gain credit for your existing studies with LinkedIn Learning. The University has a number of masters degrees, as outlined, where we've mapped LinkedIn Learning to our course materials.
In order to gain credit, you need to demonstrate that you are able to absorb the learning within these pathways and apply it in a short assessment that you're expected to submit alongside your application to study for your master's degree. When you do this, we will check your existing qualifications and experience as normal and we will also check your assessment, to ensure that you have demonstrated you've gained the learning within the pathways you have studied. If you demonstrate this, we will then give you credit within your master's degree which means you have an exemption from studying one of your master's modules and can focus on completing the remainder of your degree.
How does it work?
1. Complete your Learning Path(s) on LinkedIn Learning.
